Total time: 2 h 20 min
Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 lbs pork shoulder, cut into bite-sized pieces; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 large onion, diced; 3 garlic cloves, minced; 2 carrots, peeled and chopped; 2 celery stalks, chopped; 1 teaspoon dried thyme; 1 teaspoon smoked paprika; Salt and pepper, to taste; 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour; 12 oz beer (such as a lager or pale ale); 2 cups beef or chicken broth; 2 bay leaves; 2 potatoes, peeled and diced; Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork pieces in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot, and brown them on all sides. Remove the browned pork from the pot and set aside.
Add the diced onion to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Return the pork to the pot and add the chopped carrots and celery. Season with thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for a few minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Sprinkle the flour over the pork and vegetables, stirring well to coat everything. This will help thicken the stew later on.
Pour in the beer and broth, stirring to combine and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the bay leaves and bring the stew to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender.
Add the diced potatoes to the stew and continue to simmer, uncovered, for an additional 30 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through and the stew has thickened to your liking. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Remove and discard the bay leaves. Serve the Milwaukee Pork Stew hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
